I have had a similar recipe and used it for about 17 years. I put powder sugar on towel before I roll up. My recipe had double the amount of filling. You can use a 9x13 pan for this cake I have. I also to make sure comes out of pan easily grease pan, line with aluminum foil or parchment and grease that before I put in cake batter.

My mom has made this for years, she always used to pack a slice in my lunch box during the holidays. This is a great recipe, we usually beat the eggs 3 minutes before sugar is added, don't use ginger and sprinkle chopped walnuts over the batter before baking. Also we always cover the tea towel with a thin layer of powdered sugar first it helps to prevent sticking and gives it a finished look!

My husband's grandmother makes these and they're delicious! It's exactly the same recipe, except she puts 1/2 c nuts on top of the batter before baking it. Also, she advises putting powdered sugar on the tea towel before rolling around a paper towel cardboard tube. I can't wait to make these myself!

Easy and excellent recipe. I sprinkled a half cup of chopped walnuts over the filling before rolling up. Thanks for a terrific recipe.
